Not sure if this has been posted or even if any one saw the little clip. But it was about a 1 year old boy who has been unable to sustain life on his own and doctors are meeting tonight to decide whether to turn off his life support machine. His mum wants him to be aloud to die but his dad doesnt want him to! What a hard decision to have to make.
Personally I think if i was in that situation I would let me litte one go to heaven and be happy, although his brain is undamaged for a year he hasnt been able to live on his own so i can understand his dad wanted him to be allowed to live. Such a tough one! Thoughts are definatly with the family =[
I would have to decide the fate of my child i couldnt let it be determined by any one else. Saying that though if i was in the situation then i might have a different view on it. Sorry to hear that Elliemama such a hard thing to decided but any decision a parent makes is the right one by there child isnt it. .
its so terrible, life so cruel at times, i wouldnt ave a clue wot 2 do! id b beside myself no mata wot the choice! my thoughts r wiv them, n hope they find peace in there decision. xx
Is heartbreaking..as the mother of a child who had a severe nuero muscular condition and wasn't brain damaged i really feel for them..luckily for us our daughter didn't need to be perminantly be on a ventilator but she couldnt swallow and needed to be suctioned so she could breath..i cried everytime i had to do it..she lived till she was 2 and a half when she got pnumonia..docs asked us what we wanted to do if things didnt go our way( their words) we said that if she showed signs of fighting then give her all the help she needed but if she was tired and had had enough then to let her go peacefully and with dignity..she decided for us and died in her sleep...I am glad she didnt suffer and had we had her ventilated she might have suffered sever brain damage ..then our baby would have been lost to us..her being alert and understandind made her disabilities easier to live with xxx i dont envy them at all xx
i rwad bout this yesterday so sad but i cant say whether i could let my child go. no matter what the outcome there will be no winners, no smiling faces outside the courthouse no victory. in cases like this i do think it should go to court. ofcourse its painful, but it shuldnt be left up to parents to decide the fate of this child, i wouldnt want that on my shoulders doubt anyone else would either x x
